Olivia’s Vision gained charitable status at the end of 2010. It’s basic aims are quite simple: to be heard and to take action on behalf of every uveitis patient.
We are already campaigning to prevent avoidable sight loss, and fundraising to support research into the causes, treatment and potential cure of uveitis.
We are working closely with three of the top uveitis specialists in the UK: Professor Ayliffe, Professor Dick and Professor Murray. Together they will help guide Olivia’s Vision to make the best choices as to where funds raised should be directed, so as to help the largest number of uveitis patients.
The News page will keep you updated on the progress of all of the campaigns in which Olivia’s Vision is involved.
